88110 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 243 / Wednesday, December 20, 2023 / Notices 

BOEM requests information on the 

following topics: 

1. Potential programmatic mitigation 

measures, including wind energy 

development alternatives offshore 

California, and the effects these could 

have on: 

• Biological resources, including bats, 

birds, coastal fauna, finfish, 

invertebrates, essential fish habitat, 

marine mammals, and sea turtles; 

• Physical resources and conditions 

including air quality, water quality, and 

other waters of the United States; 

• Socioeconomic and cultural 

resources, including any resources of 

concern to Tribal Nations, commercial 

fisheries and recreational fishing, 

demographics, employment, economics, 

environmental justice, land use and 

coastal infrastructure, navigation and 

vessel traffic, other uses (marine 

minerals, military use, aviation), 

recreation and tourism, and scenic and 

visual resources, specifically if further 

visual analyses beyond the existing 

2019 California visual simulations (see 

https://www.boem.gov/california) could 

sufficiently inform potential 

programmatic mitigation measures 

without the site-specific project 

information that would be available to 

BOEM when it undertakes further 

viewshed analysis at the construction 

and operations review phase. 

2. Information on other current or 

planned activities in, or in the vicinity 

of, the five California wind energy lease 

areas under analysis. 

3. Possible alternatives and the 

alternatives’ possible impacts on 

planned activities. 

4. Other impacts on the human 

environment from California wind 

energy development in the five lease 

areas, including any mitigation 

measures. 

5. Information on the following for the 

development of the representative 

project design envelope and activities 

scenario: layout of turbines (analyze one 

or more standard layouts); setbacks 

identified in the leases; size (wind 

turbine generator nameplate capacity), 

dimensions (tip height, hub height, and 

rotor diameter) and number of turbines; 

offshore substation type, dimensions, 

number, and location; type of 

foundation or mooring design; 

foundation or mooring installation 

method; scour protection; approach to 

cable emplacement (installation 

methods and disturbance corridor 

width); location of landfalls; onshore 

substation location; point of grid 

interconnection; ports, fabrication 

facilities, and staging areas; timing of 

onshore and offshore activities; and 

associated activities such as vessel trips. 

6. BOEM also seeks comment and 

input from the public and consulting 

parties under section 106 of the NHPA 

regarding the identification of other 

potential consulting parties, the 

identification of historic properties 

offshore California, the potential effects 

on those historic properties from 

California offshore wind energy 

development alternatives, including any 

mitigation measures, and any 

information that supports identification 

of historic properties under NHPA. 

To promote informed decisionmaking, comments should be as specific 

as possible and should provide as much 

detail as necessary to meaningfully and 

fully inform BOEM of the commenter’s 

position. Comments must explain why 

the issues raised are important for 

consideration in the analysis. The draft 

PEIS will include a summary of all 

alternatives, information, and analyses 

submitted during this scoping process. 

Authority: 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq., and 

40 CFR 1501.9.
